Did you know the invention of the telephone helped lead to the invention of the hearing aid?
☎️
The telephone contained technology to control loudness, frequency, and distortion of sounds… all things that would be necessary for a hearing aid!
☎️
The telephone was invented in 1876, and by 1898 the first hearing aid was invented. This hearing aid had a separate microphone, amplifier, headphones, and battery, so it was very bulky.

Thank goodness hearing aids aren’t like that anymore!
